Claiming that they are meaningless is also making a claim that there is no there there to make claims about, and implies a metaphysics where there is a causal disconnect between perception and the perceived.
I don’t see why claiming that the concept of “there there” is meaningless implies that “there is no there there”? I disagree with the latter statement precisely because I think it’s meaningless.
>causal disconnect between perception and the perceived.
